As part of the rich history on the topic of identifying and developing ‘high potential’ employees, literally thousands of books, articles, and research papers have been written. Considering this weight of research, “pet theories” abound, with as many different ideas on how and what to do as there are HR leaders in different organizations. Join Dr. Henryk Krajewski, a recognized leader in BOTH the research and practice of talent assessment and development to share a unifying view of what matters most in selecting – and keeping – the best talent. Dr. Krajewski will distinguish what matters from what doesn’t, dispel popular myths about talent, and help you focus in on winning strategies that will help you attract and retain “differentiated” talent. Specific learning objectives include: • Learning to use compelling “business-language” conversations about the importance of top talent. • Which assessment methods and tests are research supported, and an analysis of those that aren’t. • What empirical research says about the factors proven to attract high potentials. • Gaining knowledge and familiarity with the age-old psychological data that has simply been “recycled” time and time again in popular books re: engagement. • How to use technology to make all of this easier!

Do you have your finger on the pulse of your message? Is it what you intend it to be? Are you connected to the nerve center of the audience...are you calling them to action? Doesn’t matter if it’s it written form or spoken word? Are you connecting to your intended audience, the way in which you want?
This webinar will explore how to make a solid connection with your intended audience, every time you address them. Whether they be front-line staff, management, clients, or prospective employers. It will examine the three key aspects of communication (both written and verbal), explore how to curtail your message for accuracy and detail without error and suggest how to solicit a professional check up as necessary.

Today’s knowledge economy, more than ever before, has made an organization’s people its most critical asset and one of its greatest investments. It is clear that mastering talent management helps organizations differentiate themselves in the marketplace, and thereby gain a competitive advantage. HR is firmly rooted in the belief that talent has impact, but can the same be said for an organization’s senior leadership—do they believe this to be true? Executives want evidence that HR is boosting their organization’s bottom line, but can HR substantiate and deliver this proof that talent equals financial reward?

Workforce analytics as part of a complete talent management strategy is critical for HR professionals as it enables them to connect the dots between their company’s overall performance and their investment in their workforce.

No one individual controls workplace culture, yet many HR professionals are expected to take ownership of it. When culture is good, there isn’t much of a concern, but when culture turns toxic—that’s where things can get ugly. Toxic cultures cost employers money and create difficult working conditions for all employees. From absenteeism, to employee turnover, low morale, decreased productivity, and inferior work, we all suffer the consequences of weak organizational cultures.

Join Jostle CEO Brad Palmer and Leadership Expert and co-author of Humanize, Jamie Notter for a 60 minute webinar and learn: How to identify the symptoms of a toxic workplace; how to strengthen culture by connecting to human values; how technology can play a role; and how to change culture step-by-step.

It is time to to archive your company's "Performance Management" practices and "Annual Review" process into the Museum of Motivation?

News Flash: Recent studies by brain scientists studying motivation also tell us that reward (yes reward) can be de-motivating. How performance reviews are structured and how supervisors and managers offer "feedback" to change behavior and improve performance is often ineffective and de-motivating.

What's an HR Director to do?

Ever wonder why some employee and employer relationships work well while others don’t? Those reasons are buried far beneath the surface of whether a job candidate has the necessary skills to perform the job function. Virtually every time, success can be predicted before the employee starts.

We didn’t simply wonder. My team and I embarked on an analytical and psychological review to determine why this does—or does not—happen. During this effort, we discovered that while there are many variations of successful job pursuit and recruitment techniques, there are constant success factors that determine a job candidate’s ability to make sound career choices and an employer’s ability to hire successful, long-term employees.

During The Hiring Prophecies: The Psychology Behind Recruiting Successful Employee discussion we will share the detail behind this information and how to apply it throughout your recruitment processes to evaluate these predictors to make the smartest hiring decisions!

This webinar will help you define quality of hire for your particular organization. As a strategic outlook, quality of hire involves much more than just the hiring process. People leave an organization for various reasons. By understanding how your talent management support structure impacts the employee throughout their tenure, will give you additional ideas on how to measure your quality of hire.

We will look at utilizing 360 degree feedback at intervals to enhance the measuring of QOH. In addition, this feedback can be used to measure the impact on your employees and organization with regards to your on-boarding, training, recruiting, performance management, career development, engagement and retention. We will look at how to utilize “victory fees” which pays out on internal recruiters based on retention and performance (Note that is and not or.)

While organizational culture has been touted since the early 2000 as essential for business success, there has been little connection between organizational culture and individual “fit”.

We have found that by knowing “who you are” and “who they are” from a cultural perspective, you can create an employment opportunity that allows for a more authentic and congruent work experience.

By paying attention to congruence, alignment and fit, individuals can find organizations that are better aligned with their value system and more rewarding experiences.
